I’ve learned all my hair and makeup tricks on the set, and I incorporate all kinds of things when I’m getting ready, and I’m big on blotting papers. I get a very shiny forehead, which I like to call my inner glow coming out.
Use coconut oil to remove makeup, and do it before going to bed.
I’m a Southern lady that almost never leaves the house without makeup on.
Motion capture is amazing. I prefer it. You wear a ‘Power Ranger’-esque suit, you have tape balls on you, you have 60 cameras around you capturing your every movement and there’s no hair, no makeup.
A lot of people know me from Instagram, and most of the concepts that I post there are my looks or my makeup. They don’t know or remember that, almost every night in NYC, I am running from gig to gig and working hard.
I don’t ever wear makeup. I steam my face. I put hot water to open pores and cold water to close them.
There’s a lot of us idiot actors that get tattoos and they cover them with makeup when you do a film.
I always believe that if you feel good and look happy, you’re always going to be beautiful. My one actual beauty trick is pretty cliche: Never, ever go to bed with your makeup on.
Whether I’m wearing lots of makeup or no makeup, I’m always the same person inside.
My makeup wasn’t smeared, I wasn’t disheveled, I behaved politely, and I never finished off a bottle, so how could I be alcoholic?
I always joke that I want to be able to retire from boxing and still be able to look into the mirror without seeing scars all over my face. I love my sport, but I would rather not have to spend hours doing my makeup to cover up the memories once I retire.
Skin care is so much more important than makeup. Makeup is for when you’re having fun and going out. But your skin is forever.
My schedule is pretty busy, so I’ve learned to do my makeup quickly because I prefer to sleep.
I’m very into dresses, shoes, and makeup.
There have been makeup artists who’ve asked if my eyebrows are real.
I’ll do my makeup in the car sometimes.
Blake Lively is my style icon, and she always has rocking clothes and shoes. She keeps it really simple with hair and makeup, and I try to do the same thing. Onstage, I do a little smokier, a little more contouring, but I still always want to be an approachable and real artist, so I never try to go overboard.
We the chefs have a responsibility to learn about the chemical makeup of food!
It’s a terrific responsibility trying to look right. There is so much to think about – clothes, makeup, hair. You have to look right for your fans.
Aging gracefully is about no heavy makeup, and not too much powder because it gets into the wrinkles, and, you know, to not get turtle eyelids and to not try to look young.
I get so paranoid about the makeup build-up.
I made contours and all that, but in real life, you have to be very careful with that because you can go out in the street and look terrible. All those girls who show how to do contour, they do it quite well, but they’re like makeup artists. They’re in artificial light.
As I get older, I feel like I look better with less makeup. More makeup just creases more and looks like you tried too hard to cover up a bunch of stuff, versus ‘OK, I’ve got decent skin, and that’s what I’m going with.’
As cheesy as it sounds, nothing beats a smile and a bit of confidence! As long as you feel good on the inside, you can still look beautiful without any makeup at all.
That something that I fought so hard for throughout the beginning of my career is I didn’t want to pancake my skin a lighter color to fit into the… ballet. I wanted to be myself. I didn’t want to have to wear makeup that made my nose look thinner.
I’m doing lots of interviews and stuff. I’m longing for the days of getting up, not having to put on makeup and do my hair and just going to the studio.
All the Warner actors were real actors. They started in theater and led very straightforward lives – you never saw entourages around. The MGM girls were the glamour girls, and they always had the makeup and hair people with them and all that.
I am one of those people who is not very patient in the makeup chair. I have been offered movies like ‘Planet of the Apes’ and stuff like ‘The Grinch Who Stole Christmas’ and I turned them down.
Rock and Roll Over’ was the first Kiss album I heard, but I was totally oblivious to their whole image and the makeup and all that. I was so out of touch with the wider world.
Actors’ performances in films are enhanced in a million different ways, down to the choice of camera shot by the director – whether it’s in slow motion or whether it’s quick cut – or… the choice of music behind the close-up or the costume that you’re wearing or the makeup.
When I’m wearing makeup, I choose between doing my eyes or mouth because I don’t want to look like a beauty pageant child.
Makeup is an art form for me. It’s a form of expression, and it’s such a cool way to get my creative juices flowing.
We have little bags we pack specifically for touch-up makeup if you’re chosen for the top 16. I knew I had to sneak in my banana because nothing calms my nerves like it! I don’t know if it’s the potassium, but I need it before I get on stage because it always calms me down.
When I was five, I discovered a secret box that contained Mummy’s stage makeup. It was like finding buried treasure. I tried the rouge, the eye shadow, the lipstick. But I couldn’t get the rouge off. Mummy spanked me terribly.
Whether you are sixteen or over sixty, remember, understatement is the rule of a fine makeup artist.
In my house, when I don’t bring any makeup, when wearing comfortable clothes and when I’m playing with my kids, that’s the moment where I feel the most beautiful.
I’m not a real makeup girl – you see me in lots of makeup on ‘Housewives,’ but I’m really all about skin. Take it from me: Wash, moisturize, and never neglect the neck.
They are part of lots of sessions that makeup a hazy part of my session life.
I’ve always been into cars. Cars are part of our genetic makeup. It’s unavoidable.
Makeup does a lot for your confidence. When I put makeup on, I walk taller. I smile more. I feel good. I know I look prettier. Even if I just put day makeup on.
I hardly look at myself in the mirror… I’ll only wear makeup if I need to cover something up. But I’ve recently started caring about my skin. I just turned 60 and was like, ‘OK, maybe it’s time to start thinking about it.’ Before that, I would just splash water on my face, put cream on, and then leave.
If I’m not working and getting my makeup done, that’s my chance to do a hair mask and a face mask and my plucking and waxing and all of that.
I’m a director, but I gotta have the hair, the makeup and the heels. My mother would be appalled if I didn’t dress up.
Some makeup companies have really good recycling policies, and it’s worth finding out whether your favourites are among them. With MAC, for instance, you can take any of your old makeup containers into its shops, and the sweetest deal is that, once you’ve racked up six containers, you get a free lipstick or lip gloss.
To me that’s part of my working day, and I would never refuse a job where I’m under several hours of makeup, because as an actor, I enjoy performing. It’s about the creation of the character and the art to me, not about being comfortable and how long it all takes.
When I do my own makeup, I always start with Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer.
When I first started off doing makeup, I used to use literally the most intense, cement, full-coverage makeup ever, but I realized, hey, if you’re working really hard on your skincare routine, you don’t need this.
What you have to understand is that my thing is not glamour. I love stretch marks and C-section scars and all of that. I’m a grown man. You don’t gotta put on no makeup with me.
There isn’t a flaw in his golf or his makeup. He will win more majors than Arnold Palmer and me combined. Somebody is going to dust my records. It might as well be Tiger, because he’s such a great kid.
Doing voices in animated movies has been one of my dreams. You get to go and act, and you don’t have to put on makeup.
I hate wearing makeup because I am just too lazy to take it off at night.
Just because you want to be glamorous, don’t be a sheep about your eye makeup.
One of the main inspirations behind The Power of Makeup was bullies and the one thing I believe in is that makeup is not just society, it’s for you.
I think it’s important for people to be themselves and express themselves through their makeup or their hair or their perfume or whatever it may be.
My favorite makeup look was for my ‘Eyes Wide Open’ video done by Torsten Witte. It was so dramatic and definitely captured the magic of the video.
I’m naturally androgynous. I don’t wear makeup or skirts.
During my training, we had monthly assessments. It was my first time doing makeup by myself, and I did not even know how to draw on the eyebrows. Since then, I started to look for makeup related videos on YouTube and naturally became more interested.
People always want you to look pretty. I would like to live in the Midwest in a small town and never put makeup on. But they won’t let you do that. Once I went through a period when I did do that, wore no makeup, wore my hair any which way, and people looked at me like I was a bum.
